A nice boutique loft inn with nine rooms. Everything is automated door locks or electronic and use a digital keypad for entry. Parking is assigned by room number catty-corner across the street. It's very walkable to the shopping and bar area on Jefferson.

I stayed in Loft #5, and I haven't had a more comfortable stay in ages. All of the lofts are different as they are owned by different people, but Loft #5 was absolutely spacious, just what I needed and had everything I could ask for inside. The ONLY drawbacks if there were some was the trash outside the building door, the downstairs vestibule needs a little refresher (paint, clean floors), and the halls could use a vacuuming.
